An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 30. how many chromosomes will a gamete of this organism have?

Gamete of organism has a haploid number of chromosomes.

2n = 30
n = 15

A diploid cell containing 30 chromosomes will result in 15 chromosomes in each of the 4 daughter cells after meiosis occurs.

After first nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis I), each daughter cell will only have 15 chromosomes as homologous chromosomes are broken apart at Anaphase I of meiosis I. Chromosomal number is halved. After the second nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis II), each daughter cell will also have 15 chromosomes. This time, instead of the chromosomal number being halved, their chromosomal contents are halved. Sister chromatids are separated at Anaphase II of Meiosis II, resulting in daughter chromosomes each.

Hope this helps! :)

The process where all chemical reactions within organisms enable them to maintain life is known as

Gwar [14]

I believe the correct answer would be metabolism. This comprises all of the reactions inside organisms that allows them to sustain life. There are two categories of such namely, anabolism and catabolism. Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

Given the change in positive (direction) over time we are given the velocity formula.

V = Change in direction/Change in time

Since we are given a direction we can rule out speed as well as direction in itself. We can also rule out acceleration because that is the change in Velocity divided by change in time.
